GOSPEL IMPACT

Maybe you wonder whether Made in the Streets has impact beyond what happens to street kids.  Below is the answer - the church at Kamulu continues to grow from community involvement. The MITS Team and students have shared their love of God with people outside.  Their story began on the Sunday we began our "3:16" sermons, which started with Genesis 3:16 (read it!).  That day two men married to women in the church happened to come to worship.   Mbuvi talked about growing up in Mathare Valley and his experiences with his parents and the decisions he made about how to live his life once he came to know Jesus.  He was very open and vulnerable as he talked about how Jesus wants men and husbands to live.  One of the visiting men - Amos - stopped off at a small cafe on the way home and bought the family french fries and something else for lunch.  Barbra said later that he had never done that before!  Now...Mbuvi's notes below....

This report comes from Francis Mbuvi, after baptizing Amos Mwangi at Kamulu last Sunday.
  

"It's always a joy when one more soul accepts and commits to follow Jesus. Some people take a short time while others take long listening and learning before making the final move. Such was the case with Amos Mwangi, who is Married to Barbra, a lady who cleans the church. For a long time she has come both to me and the women's group requesting that we pray for her husband who used to be a heavy alcohol drinker. She had almost given up not knowing God was still working in him. Slowly he started coming to church and over time felt convicted. He called me last week and said "the messages you have been preaching have really touched me and I would like to be baptized this coming Sunday".  So we did baptize him, and his family - even his mother - was there to witness, along with the whole church. It was also our Sunday for fellowship tea together. God continues to work wonders and we praise him. Blessings”
